Hoka vs Nortiv 8 Tennis Shoes for Disney — Full Park Day Test

If you’re new to AllEars, then you need to know that Hokas are some of our favorite shoes ever. We go to Disney World or Disneyland every day for our job, sometimes walking up to 20,000 steps, and Hokas are always the most comfortable shoes for a Disney day.

When we heard about a popular HOKA dupe for half the price, we had to put them to the test! Does this budget shoe perform just as well as HOKAs? Let’s find out!

These Hoka Women’s Clifton 10s win gold!

The Hoka Women’s Clifton 10s are one of our favorite shoes ever. They’re ultra comfortable with so much support from a bouncy heel. They’re springy to the heels and soles of your feet when you step, but not in a way that makes you feel like you’re going to leap into the air with each step. It’s a gentle give that greets your foot as you walk.

These HOKA Clifton 10s look chunky, but they’re so lightweight that we could barely even feel them. These babies are built for long-term wear – we’ve had them for years, and they’re still going strong!

These NORTIV 8 Women’s Walking Shoes are a great budget option!

These NORTIV 8 Women’s Walking Shoes are super comfortable, but don’t have as much cushioning as HOKAs. We weren’t able to walk all day, multiple days in a row, without foot fatigue. With HOKAs, we can easily get multiple ten-hour days without soreness, but these aren’t a good choice if you’ll be walking for long periods multiple days in a row.

Like HOKAs, these NORTIV 8 Women’s Walking Shoes have great arch support. They have a comfortable heel support and conform to the grooves of your feet. They felt very stable and aligned after a long park day! Plus, this pink color is just as stylish as our HOKAs.
